Recreates, extended and in high definition, the version of the film that made Lauren Bacall’s agent call for reshoots. Was his fear for her career without them justified?

To create a version of Inglourious Basterds, which is less self-indulgent, at 102 mins, without any music and then add back in a single score from another movie to change the entire tone.

Comparison documentary between the fan edit In A Kingdom by the Sea and the original film Play Misty for Me. Contains behind-the-scenes audio & video of the making of the original film from the actors and producers and commentary on making the fan edit. On-screen text and images appear to explain further details.

This is my first documentary as a video editor. I talk in it about how I made the edit, about fanedit.org, about editors, and about Red Apple Crew. The edit also contains behind-the-scenes commentary by Clint Eastwood (the director), other actors in the film, as well as producers and film critics. It has behind-the-scenes photos and information that appears as you watch.

The edit goes back and forth between the bluray version of the original film and my edit, comparing and contrasting them. Commentary plays sometimes, text appears on-screen throughout, and I talk in a few spots.

Partially recreating a lost (or at least unavailable) alternate version of Max Ophüls 1952 anthology.

In the Director's words: "The one thing I wanted to achieve was not only a specific portrait of the 'ups and down, the highs and lows' of the shared-house experience but a reflection of the social environment that spawns each character in the first place."

The original film is based on a novel. The film's central character is Danny (Noah Taylor), a wannabe writer, who takes the place of the author Birmingham in the original screenplay.

This is an odd film that I didn't particularly enjoy in its original form, but I discovered some moments that I thought really worked, and managed to stitch those threads into a short film that I quite enjoy. It's a bit abstract, but feels like a complete moment in time - an experience of the main character's time at a health and wellness spa, and some of the people he encounters there, and small insights into his life. It becomes more about the camaraderie between Michael Caine and Paul Dano than Caine and Keitel in the original.

George Miller's Furiosa, with fewer explicit ties to Fury Road, and a modest reduction in runtime.

This edit combines several sources of media to examine the series of events in the two decades prior to 911, such as the Taliban taking control of Iraq, Bin Laden's origins and involvement in the pre-911 attacks like the first WTC bombing, the USS Cole bombing, and the two African embassy bombings. As well as the political environment that caused the USA to overlook and in some cases completely disregard key pieces of intelligence pointing to an imminent terrorist attack prior to 911.

This edit tries to change the tone of the film and enhance the horror elements with the picture in black/white and a brand new and darker soundtrack.

The fifth Volume in a series of edits aiming to recut GAME OF THRONES to bring it more inline with the A SONG OF ICE AND FIRE book series that it was adapted from. This Volume covers A CLASH OF KINGS Chapters 33-69, which mostly corresponds to GAME OF THRONES 2.05-2.10.

In 1951, a man gets into a car accident and loses his memory. He wakes up in a small town where he is identified as a soldier who was believed to have been killed in action during World War 2 and who is also the long-lost son of one of it's residents.

So I actually feel like this is my favorite adaptation of the novel, courtesy of Angela Bettis being just perfect for the roles.

The film itself well it’s not perfect, I think the script is solid, but the direction and special effects leave a lot to be desired.

There is this running theme of a police detective asking survivors of the prom questions about Carrie. This adds nothing to the film and makes it feel so long because it is long! Two hours and twelve minutes?? Come on man. That’s like if someone made a two hour and 17 minute slasher film starring a clown, oh wait.

I have a habit of abandoning edits before I can even finish a rough draft. Well I set out to challenge myself so I did this in one day, can’t quit something when it’s already done.

The fourth Volume in a series of edits aiming to recut GAME OF THRONES to bring it more inline with the A SONG OF ICE AND FIRE book series that it was adapted from. This Volume covers A CLASH OF KINGS Chapters 0-32 & 42, which mostly corresponds to GAME OF THRONES 2.01-2.04.

To create a version of Inglourious Basterds, which is less self-indulgent, at 102 mins, without any music and then add back in a single score from another movie to change the entire tone.

This is one of the few films I've edited where I enjoyed it without any complaints in its original form too, and would encourage people to watch it that way as well. The edit doesn't change the tone of the film or significantly alter the core plot, it just formats it in a way that fits my own rewatching preferences - removing some of the side plot and rearranging a few scenes. This cuts about 20 minutes off the film, but keeps the laid-back pace and quiet moments of the original, this isn't an attempt to speed up a beautiful piece of art.

Combines the only two connected theatrically-released Ghibli films into a single feature. A big white(ish) cat will show you the way…twice!

This edit intercuts between two timelines. The first one taking place mostly after Andy escapes, the second one taking place before his escape.

Back in March, I released a project that I had been working on on and off known as Dune: Kwisatz Haderach -- Part 1, which was an experimental cut I made to see if you could trim down the first part of Denis Villeneuve's adaptation of the epic science fiction novel, Dune, and still retain a cohesive story while doing so. Once I released that project, I knew I had to give Dune: Part 2 the Kwisatz Haderach treatment as well. With nearly 30 minutes of footage cut from the original 2 hr 46 min runtime, I was able to create a streamlined yet still cohesive cut of Dune Part 2.

I am proud to present Dune: Kwisatz Haderach -- Part 2.

After discovering a mysterious briefcase left by his father, adolescent Peter Parker embarks on a quest to uncover the truth about his parents' disappearance, further complicating his life as he deals with newfound superpowers, his first love and, most importantly, growing up.

"The Birth of a Hero: A Spider-Man Story" is a retelling of the most infamous chapter in the web-slinger's cinematic history that aims to remove most of the superheroics in order to create a more emotionally grounded narrative about Peter Parker finding his place in the world.

The goal of this edit was to rearrange the first 36 minutes of the film so as to create more mystery around Ordell (Samuel L Jackson) and his intentions with Beaumont (Chris Tucker) and Jackie (Pam Grier). In the original, it's obvious what's going to happen with Beaumont, due to the discussion between Ordell and Max (Robert Forster) in the scene prior, but now that is no longer the case. Otherwise, the film plays out in the same way.

In a small Oklahoma town in 1964, the rivalry between two gangs, the poor Greasers and the rich Socs, heats up when one gang member accidentally kills a member of the other.

The Even More Complete Novel reintegrates footage left out of the extended cut from the theatrical cut, as well as two deleted scenes not present in either cut, with the option to choose the rock soundtrack from the extended cut, or the classical score from the theatrical.

The third Volume in a series of edits aiming to recut GAME OF THRONES to bring it more inline with the A SONG OF ICE AND FIRE book series that it was adapted from. This Volume covers A GAME OF THRONES Chapters 50-72, which mostly corresponds to GAME OF THRONES 1.08 - 1.10.

The second Volume in a series of edits aiming to recut GAME OF THRONES to bring it more inline with the A SONG OF ICE AND FIRE book series that it was adapted from. This Volume covers A GAME OF THRONES Chapters 23-49, which mostly corresponds to GAME OF THRONES 1.04 - 1.07.

Deep Impact is a good film, and Armageddon is a well directed B movie with a bunch of money thrown at it. Let's add 'em together! I had this fun little idea a while back and wanted to bring it to the big.... to a screen. So, I cut out the crew from Deep Impact and replaced them with the Armageddon crew. I cut out most of Armageddon, and I cut about half of Deep Impact to make this hybrid called "a sky full of colors", trying my best to let these two wildly different movies balance each other. The hardest part being just how fast Armageddon is, because it's just... so dang fast, and somehow so dang long... Michael Bay, you ol' chap.

The first Volume in a series of edits aiming to recut GAME OF THRONES to bring it more inline with the A SONG OF ICE AND FIRE book series that it was adapted from. This Volume covers A GAME OF THRONES Chapters 0-22, which mostly corresponds to GAME OF THRONES 1.01 - 1.03.

“Year of the Dragon” is a great ride. The worldbuilding, the cinematography, Michael Cimino’s direction, Mickey Rourke’s gritty performance as NYC police Captain Stanley White, his balanced contrast with smooth-talking Chinese gangster Joey Tai (John Lone); it all equates to one seriously entertaining film. The flack that Rourke (and Cimino) got for this movie is unfortunate, but understandable. There’s a key issue that makes our flawed protagonist too unlikable, jarringly disrupts the core crime-thriller narrative, involves bad acting, and pushes dopey sexploitation: White’s adulterous pursuit of local Chinatown reporter, Tracy Tzu (Ariane Koizumi; AKA “Ariane”).

By removing the White/Tracy adulterous relationship subplot entirely, I’ve attempted to redeem Mickey Rourke’s character in “Year of the Dragon” as much as possible. I’ve also streamlined the plot to keep focus on what matters: ‘renegade cop who doesn’t follow the rules is on a fanatic moral crusade to clean up crime in Chinatown, colored by his past as a Vietnam vet, and ultimately accelerated by personal vengeance.’

This edit includes footage and voiceovers left out of the final release of this film, as well as a superior grade based on the first two cuts of the film.

Presenting the heavily-truncated home viewing cut with the best possible quality video and audio.

Second Scribbling Cut revisits a previously light edit of mine and indulges in significantly heavier trims for pacing, as well as to songs and humour. The Taxidermist scene has been re-scored to aid the new tone and there is a slight shift to the order of some scenes. The result is the removal of an additional 30 minutes (39 minutes in total), without sacrificing any of the core narrative. Optional audio is included for a crisper recording of the opening and closing themes, as well as the iconic Albert Hall sequence.

Rescore only! I just find that the original version is too quiet and full of silent parts.
I want to fill these parts but also add a different vibe and rescore the whole film.

The overly long, over-edited Best Picture award-winning film by Christopher Nolan has been cut down to an hour-and-a-half-long story focused on The Manhattan Project. The oppressive omnipresent score by Ludwig Göransson was removed, with only three tracks put back in. The rest of the music is from other artists. For scenes with no music, new sound effects have been added. Intercutting of shots and scenes has been greatly reduced.

Removes a cringeworthy character that nobody can really defend the inclusion of from a creative perspective.

Based on Scott Turow's novel "Presumed Innocent" (1987), adapted from its namesake movie (1990), and in anticipation of the upcoming Apple+ mini series, "WAS JUSTICE DONE?" explores the question of justice, inside and outside of the law, in two versions.
In both, Rusty, a married prosecutor, has an affair with a beautiful colleague. When she is murdered, he investigates the case until he himself becomes the prime suspect. He hires Sandy Stern, a top defense lawyer, to plead his innocence. The killer is revealed: Version A matches the original movie, Version B reveals a different killer.
This fanedit is faster paced (38 minutes shorter than the 1990 movie). The timeline is compressed (the victim starts out alive, the affair is ongoing). It remains unclear whether Rusty is the killer (until the reveal).

Removed the scenes that cut away to the narrator throughout the film, and rework the story to flow smoothly without interruption.

Dune: Kwisatz Haderach - Part One is the first of a two part project, and is an experimental cut that explores how much of the film can be cut without turning into a muddled, non-cohesive mess. Cutting twenty-two minutes of footage, I was able to create a shorter, hopefully still satisfying cut of Dune: Part One clocking in at two hours and thirteen minutes.

I am proud to present Dune: Kwisatz Haderach - Part One.

The 1961 film, featuring Audrey Hepburn in her likely best-known role, has been conformed to match the 1958 novella of the same name by Truman Capote as much as possible, as well as removing the horribly-dated appearance of Mickey Rooney. In essence, this edit takes the romance and some "comedy" out of a beloved romcom!

This fan edit reimagines the Twin Peaks film and all of its deleted scenes by cutting it into a 3 episode mini series that mimics the style of the first two seasons of the show.

The most significant aspects of this edit are:

1) It combines Fire Walk With Me and The Missing Pieces deleted scenes into 3 episodes.
2) The storyline has been reordered, so that the Laura Palmer plotline appears first and the Chet Desmond/Deer Meadow plotline is intercut with it.
3) There is a custom intro for each episode like in the original show.

Episode titles:
Episode 1 - The Owl Ring
Episode 2 - The Path to The Pink Room
Episode 3 - Beyond Angels & Owls

The Lion King has be released on home media several times over, with changes being made along the way. Many of these changes were for the better, but some of them were for the worse. This fanedit of the film serves to take some of the better changes from earlier releases of the film and add them back into a more high quality, later edition copy of the film. Also included are more songs!

This is for people who think “Please don’t edit Andor, it’s already perfect… I’d take it as movies though.”

This is Andor season one, rearranged into four movies of roughly two hours each, removing no content whatsoever, just focused on smoothly presenting each major A-plot as a movie whilst moving the supporting B-plots around to keep each movie as focused as possible, so each movie is self-contained and easily digestible.

I wanted to make a different version of this quite boring remake that Gus Van Sant gave us.
Cut out a lot of scenes to speed things up and rescore it with a 80's vibe.

Kept the laid-back pace of the main story intact, but trimmed some of the main character family life, and some of the flashbacks to focus on the core narrative without interruption. Some scenes are recut and rearranged for better impact.

I changed the entire soundtrack (minus 2 songs where a character mimes the original songs). All songs are period correct to the era (1977-1983).

The story of a passionate but doomed romance between a poor, young artist named Jack and an upper-class woman named Rose, aboard the ill-fated maiden voyage of the RMS Titanic.

The Extended Voyage aims to present James Cameron's film at it's best and longest, with more than 30 new and extended scenes, and over 30 minutes of footage. More Titanic action, romance, drama and iceberg!

The Passion of J. Robert Oppenheimer focuses on the atomic bomb development and Oppenheimer’s security clearance. Lewis Strauss senate hearing scenes removed completely while introducing his character in the context of conspiratorial intervention. Narrative follows Oppenheimer’s perspective almost exclusively.

American History X had a very tumultuous post-production, ending with the director leaving the film and wanting his name taken off. He has disowned the film as Edward Norton supervised editing, adding over 20 minutes of footage that director Tony Kaye detested.

Based on an early workprint, this edit aims to recut and rearrange the film using this preliminary cut for reference, and present what the director's original intention could have been had he not clashed with the studio.

Les Misérables (2012) London 1985 Stage Musical Edit provides a viewing experience of the Oscar-winning musical film that is as pleasing to the ears as it is to the eyes. Each musical number (about 95% of the film) has been dubbed over with studio or concert recordings from the professionals who have performed the musical on the London and Broadway stages. The video has been lovingly adjusted to sync up with the music, and in the time-honored cinematic tradition of a little suspension of disbelief, we can imagine the actors who brought so much passion to the film were also able to sing their parts without running out of air.

In the original movie, Kevin Spacey's character has such a jarring flip on conscience that it almost ruined what is otherwise a really fun movie. So I fixed it! I moved scenes around, added foley, learned some new techniques on Premiere Pro, and even recorded my own voice to fill in some gaps. I hope this redeems Doc and makes the ending more satisfying and fun for everyone!

Marni Nixon's dubbing of Audrey Hepburn's singing has been almost completely replaced with recordings of Audrey's voice (only "The Rain In Spain" remains of Marni Nixon).

This movie in its original format feels like there should be more going on than there actually is, and it left me feeling unfulfilled and slightly annoyed. By removing as much of the filler and misleads as possible without hurting the flow of the narrative, I believe I have made a movie that treats its viewer with more respect while telling an interesting story with a fairly unique premise.

“Vengeance of the Dark Side” tells a more complete story of Anakin Skywalker’s fall from renowned hero to the galaxy’s most dreaded villain by reinserting 5.75 previously deleted scenes (AI-upscaled to 4K and recolored into HDR). Where the theatrical cut follows Anakin nearly exclusively, the extra scenes in this edit give Padmé her own storyline that intersects with Anakin's--providing deeper foundations for his growing mistrust of her--and helping to expand Star Wars lore by showcasing previously unknown aspects of the Force (when the saga is viewed in episode-order) and the conception of the Rebel Alliance even before the Galactic Republic officially falls.
